We still continue to move in the eastern part of the city at the time of partition. We have one of Berlin's most famous streets: Unter den Linden. (Below the poles) Linden trees were necessary to strengthen the marshy lands that were in the city's territory. In the center of the street stands a statue of Frederick the Great on horseback. In his lifetime he asked for a modest burial and forbade sculpture for him. But after his death he was not obeyed. After 111 years of power, the Germans placed a statue of the great Parisian here on the main street of the city. At the same time, in the days of Communist Germany, the statue almost melted on the altar of Communists but survived in one of the courtyards. Today this street is re-placed in its historic place.
